Who Wins

Pre-6, Lux+Jinx has a meaningful advantage because Yunara without R is immobile and Lux's E root into Jinx Zap is a strong poke combo — however, Pantheon's W stun can cancel your E wind-up and punish you hard if you overextend.
Post-6, Yunara's R gives her a dash (E) that can close on you over walls, making your positioning as Lux significantly more dangerous since she can now reach you.

Your best trading pattern is to land E (Lucent Singularity) on Yunara to slow and root her, then follow with Q (Light Binding) if she tries to walk away — this denies her the ability to stack Q freely and forces Pantheon to either peel or lose his carry.
Avoid using your abilities reactively; instead, bait Yunara's W (spirit bead) first since it has a travel time, then punish her cooldown window.

You should roam when the wave is shoved into the enemy tower and Jinx can safely freeze or hold — optimal timings are after a successful level 6 combo that forces Yunara or Pantheon to back, since Pantheon himself is a roam threat and matching his roam pressure matters.
Do not roam if Yunara has R available, as she can punish Jinx 1v2 with her R's sustained damage and Pantheon's lockdown.

Do not stand close to Jinx during Yunara's R — Yunara's W laser and Q splash damage can hit both of you in clustered positions, and as the squishier support you will take disproportionate damage.
Lux's value is in landing skillshots from range, not in being a frontline buffer, so maintain distance and avoid the temptation to walk up for auto-attack poke.
